Lemon White Chocolate Almond Bars

Lemon White Chocolate Almond Bars – These lemon bars are a cross between a traditional lemon bar and a lemon custard pie. The custard filling is light and airy and the lemon flavor is bright and fresh. They’re one of my favorite bars to make when I’m planning a tea party with my friends. They’re elegant and ladylike…a perfect choice for a morning of sipping hot tea, munching on tiny food, and girl talk. The guys will never admit it, but, they love them too!

I recommend making these the day you want to serve them dusting with a dusting of powdered and a dollop of whipped cream just before. The filling is both rich and delicate a real sweet treat for the lemon fans in your life.

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 13 inch dish with cooking spray and press the sugar cookie dough evenly onto the bottom of the baking dish. Press the almonds and white chocolate chips into the dough and bake for 15 minutes. It’s normal for the crust to puff up slightly during this step.

Use a hand mixer to whip together the pie filling, sweetened condensed milk, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice and vanilla. Whisk on medium speed for 2 minutes or until light and fluffy.

Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust and spread evenly using an off set spatula. Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until set. Cool completely, and dust with powdered sugar just before serving. Serve with a dollop of sweetened fresh whipped cream.
